I held off buying into digital, waiting for Nikon to match Canon's sensor size. Finally I broke down and bought Nikons and lenses. Now I'm upset that they've introduced the nearly 35mm size format. Since I sold my 35 gear, now I'll buy Canon digital and lenses.

I am very happy with my D200 and when something new comes out I always think what can they do next. When I bought my D70 I thought I was in heaven. Now that I have a D200 I just can't see anything better. When does it stop.

For the type of photography I do the APS-C sensor is fine. I shoot DSLR digital and 35 as well as 4x5. Full sized sensor cameras are too expensive right now for me, even the Canon 5D with the lower prices.

Full-frame certainly is advantageous on the wide-end. Too, Nikon has thrown a lot of doubt into where they are going from here. From a buying perspective, I will be unlikely to buy Nikon DX lenses - not wanting to get "stuck" with a lens that is limited to DX format cameras.

I think Nikon must keep in-line with what it is doing -- market share dictates tha larger sensors do not mean better images. What Nikon has to do is stop playing patsie to Canon, come out with a digital consumer camera in the 20mp range to shut Canon down period.

I have had the Canon 5D - sold it and purchased the 40D. It has more fearures abd in my opinion takes better images. I also saved money and weight on my telephoto lens - the 70-200mm works really well.

Full-frame misses the point. It is an attempt to use old style (film) lenses on digital sensors. It appears only really good and really expensive lenses will work. I prefer optimized digital such as Olympus 4:3 which designs superior, but less expensive optimized digital lenses. Of course APS-C also has excellent optimized digital lenses too.

I look forward to my lenses performing as they would on a 35mm film camera. The larger sensor will either have more pixels or larger pixels. I like Nikon's approach of using larger pixels, which provide benefits in terms of dynamic range and low noise.

This depends very much on your needs and there is a place for each sensor size in the market. For me, the ability to retain the image qualities of full-frame are critical and I am happy the pay a higher price for it.

After converting to the digital wide angles to accomidate Nikon, I don't think its worth it to buy a more expensive body and re-purchase the old lenses I sold. Nikon should have introduced a full-frame sooner.

I have a Canon 30D, and I'm satisfied with it, but I always want the one that's better, the 5D. I find my cropping sometimes needs adjustment. Basically I can be happy with the APS-C sensor, although I may be less clear about the difference as I thought.
